Jackson-based Walks with Nate LLC, through its Lemon Drop Long Drive event, raised more than $20,000 on April 2 for testicular cancer awareness.

Nate Gautier, account manager for rustmedia, a cancer survivor, will deliver checks Friday to Saint Francis Medical Center and to SoutheastHEALTH, according to a news release.

Funds are targeted to support local and national cancer patients and their families.

Walks with Nate has partnered with Raleigh Testicular Cancer Foundation (RTCF) in North Carolina.

RTCF, which donated to Walks with Nate to provide coffee gift cards to oncology nurses at both local hospitals, is a not-for-profit with a mission to mentor and provide financial relief to boys and men impacted by testicular cancer as they complete treatment.

Walks With Nate LLC, recognized by the Missouri Secretary of State's Office on Feb. 16, 2021, reports its long drive golf event at TeeHouse Complex, a driving range in Cape Girardeau, raised more than $13,000 last year.
